Juice WRLD: Into the Abyss will debut on HBO and HBO Max on Thursday, December 16, a week after what would have been the artist’s 22nd birthday. The documentary was directed by Tommy Oliver and is presented as part of HBO’s Music Box series, which is executive produced by Bill Simmons. The Music Box series has so far produced documentaries on Woodstock ’99 and Alanis Morissette, and also has projects that will focus on DMX, Kenny G, and music manager Robert Stigwood as well as part of its “one iconic series, six singular films” slogan.
